Department: Early Childhood

I believe that every child is unique in their social/emotional, cognitive, physical, and language development. I believe that each child is full of wonder and needs experiences to foster their learning. I teach by providing real hands-on experiences that allow children to use their senses through play to discover the world around them. Experience is the best teacher and I believe it is my job to provide developmentally appropriate activities to nurture each child’s learning. I run a child centered classroom that is developmentally appropriate and play based.
